Mark Critchley and Chris Waugh analyse the main talking points from Old Trafford…What does this mean for Manchester United? Mark CritchleyWhat does this mean for Newcastle United? Howe’s side are level on points with Manchester United, but above Ten Hag’s team on goal difference, a factor which could yet prove critical.

In his first game back from an eight-month ban, Toney scored from a free kick to help Brentford beat Nottingham Forest 3-2 on Saturday and end a skid of five straight Premier League losses. I’m just buzzing to be back and scoring goals and playing for the team. Frank even gave Toney the captain's armband for this game, indicating how important his return is for the west London club. Toney led his team with 20 goals in 33 league games last season before being handed the ban in May. With the return of Toney, any thoughts of a relegation scrap for Brentford might soon be in the past.

Google is laying off "several hundred" employees in its advertising sales team, Business Insider has learned. Schindler wrote that the cuts were the result of changes being made to how Google's sales team operates. BI previously reported that Google was shifting more staff away from Large Customer Sales (LCS), a team that serves the company's bigger advertising clients, to its Google Customer Solutions (GCS) team, which serves more medium-level clients. This reorg is the next evolution of that as cuts appear to be primarily targeted at the LCS team. Our goal has always been to have the right customer, mapped to the right channel for growth, with the best support models and streamlined operations.

Google told laid-off workers that they could apply for other roles at the company. Most staff are being paid until March 31 but their access to internal systems has been cut off. But laid-off workers told Insider that they are having to apply for roles as external candidates. Laid-off staff are not eligible for roles only posted for internal candidates, "so we have a much more limited pool of potential roles," she said. "We're basically being treated like outsiders who never worked at Google," Paul Baker, a laid-off video production manager, told Insider via email.
